Christmas Carol Promotion Tour

Post by **TNPihl** » Fri May 08, 2009 8:51 am

A train tour that will go cross country for "Disney's A Christmas Carol", starting on May 22nd in Los Angeles and ending in New York on November 1st.

Here's what you can expect in the train's four cars:

•A digital gallery of the film's characters and their design evolution; each portrait will digitally change and show how they were created.

•Artifacts from the Charles Dickens Museum in London, including a first edition of the original novel and some of the author's personal writing paraphernalia.

•A display of performance-capture technology, in which the real actors' movements and expressions are recorded and digitized, then used for animated renderings.

•Interactive games, including a face-morphing photo booth that will blend the visitor's visage with Scrooge's.

I know it's only coming to Boston near where I live, but maybe I might give it a try!

They should hire the 'Flying Scotsman' in the UK...........it's an early/historic train and would be REALLY AUTHENTIC.............

if her restoration is completed by then she'd be a HUGE publicity draw....

I'd actually pay to go around the U.S in a train with my kids...

waahhh...

It doesn't take you around the USA. It doesn't move when you are on it.

but how about when it goes to the different spots? That's what I am talking about, but I guess one would have to be famous or Jim to even be considered to ride along the U.S.

I like the theater pic. Almost like you can watch the actual film on a train! That would've been extra cool!

The whole train idea and it's traveling around the US is cool as it is. To bad unless I pay a train company good money my kids and I will never experince that.

Bet it's awesome.

Now riding straight on a train without any pit stops, just sucks...

I'd love to go around the US in a trailer or whatever with my kids... one of these centuries I recken...
